A Little Magic
The Art Happy Urban Exhibition
11–17 October 2027
Early Access: 9–10 October 2027
Add a little magic.
A Little Magic celebrates art inspired by imagination, folklore, fantasy and the slightly unexpected.
We’re looking for original artwork that takes us somewhere beyond the everyday — from enchanted landscapes, mysterious forests and moonlit skies to mythical creatures, fairies, folklore, legends and wonderfully imagined worlds.
But magic doesn't have to mean fantasy. It might be a strange light in a familiar landscape, an animal with a little more personality than nature intended, a dreamlike scene or simply something that makes the viewer wonder.
Your work can be beautiful, mysterious, playful, atmospheric, dark, colourful or completely unexpected.
If there's a little magic in it, we'd love to see it.
